Off the shelf and online

Through Falkirk Libraries you are now able to read books online, either on your own pc or laptop, or in any of the libraries.

Simply visit the links below, select the library card option at the log in box and use your library card number to log in. You will then be able to access the full text of selected titles from the Bloomsbury Library Online.

As well as the book itself there are additional features such as press reviews, author films and interviews and reading guides.
